A
Cottage on the Moss
by
Lawrence Dyer • Published by Library Empyreal
• Cover photography by Lauren Halkon
Want
to live in a remote stone cottage up in the mountains?
What do you do if it is constantly invaded by mice,
rats and swarms of insects? What would it feel like
when giant
snowdrifts sever the electricity supply and all routes
to the outside world?
Find
out how the author and his wife encounter wild creatures,
eccentric locals, uncooperative farm animals and go
on to set up a herd of ponies. This is a true story
of both triumphs and disasters - all set against the
incredibly beautiful backdrop of the Pennine mountains
with their bold dark crags of millstone grit, their
secret valleys of moss-carpeted forests and clear brooks
sheltering shoals of trout.
The
true story of a young couple's struggle both against
and with nature to bring back to life an old
cottage and its surrounds.
